  • In today's podcast, meet Gretchen: Gretchen is one of my in-person styling clients. When she and I first started working on her style and image, she thought it was just a surface issue. She she *thought* just needed some "new clothes."

    As we started working together, I discovered the issue was much deeper than just not having enough clothing in her closet or having items that fit/flattered her figure (which side note, there usually is a deeper issue that becomes a limiting belief).

    The issue was that now being an empty-nester, her kids had grown and moved out, Gretchen truly didn't feel inspired by her closet anymore, hadn't actually shopped for herself in almost 30 years (she still had maternity clothing in there), and was still in the mode of everyone-first-but-me-last mentality. This left her feeling lackluster, uninspired to even get dressed, and worse, like she wasn't WORTHY of dressing for who she was WORTHY of being seen.

    Does this sound familiar/similar to you?

    Listen in to find out HOW by working with a stylist, Gretchen was able to transform her self-worth, spark her love life again, and even travel the world with her spouse. Because let's be honest, if she KNEW how to feel worthy again and transform her self-image, she would have done it on her own already. I guided her and gave her a unique framework to develop her confidence again through the power of style.

  • I'm going to be real, this was literally...the...hardest...episode... I have ever recorded. I tried not to cry or get too emotional on you.

    Why? Today I am sharing my deepest and fear and current struggle, with my weight, self-image, body-image, and even my fear in regards to *trying* to start a family. Or what I call, trying to have a MOMbod in a 6-pack world.

    TRUTH: I am 10 pounds heavier than my normal self. That means most of my jeans currently don't fit, I don't fully look at myself in the mirror right now, and I am trying to be okay with it. I know, that all sounds super shallow.

    YES I am already debating in my head whether or not to even share this episode, or this description right now, because it might make me seem like a shallow person.

    BUT I am going to challenge myself to be real, vulnerable, and to share the hard things. I am sharing this today to vocalize what I am struggling with. If I am struggling with the negative self talk, the destructive behavior, and body image issues, I know other women are struggling too.

    Find out WHY I am actually NOT trying to lose the weight, why I feel like it is important to share and be vulnerable about my current struggle, and HOW we can be there for one another. By sharing today's episode, I hope to inspire you to not give up on yourself - no matter what your struggle is.

  • Are you having a bonkers winter where you are at, my dear? I am going on day 3 this week, day 7 total, of being snowed in - we seriously haven't been able to get our cars (even my husband's truck) out of our road because of snow drifts for miles.

    It may sound crazy, especially if you live on a road that the city plows, but out in the sticks for us country bumpkins, it is just another day in the frozen tundra.

    Just the other night in order to get home, we had to take a snowmobile to our place, with luggage! You have to listen to that story at the end of the podcast today, as well as all of our adventures of the snowstorm of February 2019.

    Here's the thing: I could get upset, feel sorry for myself, and even complain all day long. But that wouldn't get me out of the house, or create any positives in my life.

    So rather than whine, I decided to think about the biggest life lessons this snowpocalypse has taught me, and how you can create Snow ANGELS out of Snow, no matter what the storm of life is dumping on you.

    I hope you enjoy today's episode and the 5 biggest life lessons from the snow!

  • It is the month of love, and as a special episode in honor of Valentine's Day, I wanted to share an episode with my forever Valentine, my husband, Dr. Chris Murphy.

    Join us as we discuss our 5 tips for a healthy, happy, fun, and strong marriage. During the "interview" with my spouse, we answer 5 questions with the best ways we have learned to show up for each other, make the most of our limited hours together, and continue to grow both individually and as a couple.

    Some of our answers are similar, but I bet a few of our answers will surprise you. Plus we are sharing the dorky ways we have fun together and continue to surprise one another even after 8 years of marriage.

    Both Chris and I hope that by sharing what works in our marriage that we can help you become closer in your relationship with your partner and increase the love, passion, and happiness you share with your person.

    We are by no means perfect or have it all figured out, but let us know what you think of today's episode by leaving a review on iTunes, Stitcher, or Google Play, as it will help us improve the messages/episodes in the future.

  • "If I fall asleep at this exact moment... I will get 5 hours of sleep. Okay I can function on 5...

    An hour later... Okay, if I fall asleep right now, I will get 4 hours of sleep. Better than nothing...

    Okay, its 6:00 am, can I please just get an hour nap?

    No? Oh, okay..."

    Have you ever been there? Battling with insomnia, depression, anxiety, or something similar? I get it. If you have been following my journey for a little bit, you know a little bit about my struggles with debilitating insomnia, anxiety, and depression. (to here my full journey to health, listen to episode number 1, Deidra's Journey.

    Things are much better now, but I am no where near a perfect record for consecutive nights of sleep. Of course, whenever a big launch, one-on-one session, or presentation is coming up for me... I...DON"T...SLEEP. Period.

    I didn't sleep the night before my online live masterclass - where over 600 women had registered to learn my tips to looking polished and pulled together. I wasn't energized, I wanted to quit, and I wanted to be a VICTIM.

    It is so easy for me to slip into victimhood, feel sorry for myself, and want to just curl up in a ball on my bed with a blanket and pillow. Have you ever felt that way?

    Listen to today's podcast to hear my 4 ACTION steps and tips that you can implement to help fake it till you make it, defeat victimhood, and SHOW up for those around you as the person you need to be.

  • Black Friday is over and as a personal stylist, I actually avoided the shopping and sales like the plague! Does that surprise you?

    Many friends and family are shocked every year when I explain that I don't black Friday shop (actually for a lot of reasons), and then I explain what I always spend my holiday weekend actually doing...

    The Murphy duo become hermits on the weekend after Thanksgiving, seriously. My husband and I seclude ourselves from the world and take an entire day to become Goal Diggers.

    Now I know I didn't coin that term, (thank you to Jenna Kutcher for the term Goal Digger), but I think it is a great way to explain what I spend an entire day doing with my husband.

    We reflect on the previous year's goals, what big accomplishments were reached, where do we each need to reassess and change our personal/couple/business goals, and where do we see the next year taking us.

    Would you like to know our secrets, steps, and actionable ways to create concrete and attainable (aka measurable) goals?

    Listen to today's episode to become crystal clear on how to goal set, dream build, and create the best year yet in order to make 2019 a year of goal digging and make it your b****!

  • Don’t give up, give back!

    With the Thanksgiving season and holidays right around the corner, the consumerism is all around us. It can be an easy time to spiral into a state of overwhelm, hustle and bustle, and even the constant need to put things off until the “holidays are over” and wait until life “settle down.”

    Are you there already? Stressed about what to give as the perfect gift, or what to buy? Well in today’s podcast, I am actually talking about ways to GIVE that don’t include a price tag, receipt, or 2-day shipping. That’s right, we are talking about what it means to truly give back. How to give back, why it is important to do so – not just during the holiday season.

    Is there an organization you have benefitted from personally? A group or foundation you have always admired, maybe written a check out to, or attended a fundraiser for? It is time to take things into the next phase of giving and share your personal time, talents, and treasure with the groups and communities that help serve those in need.

    In today’s episode, I am sharing the 3 reasons why you should find avenues to give back, as well as action steps to find groups that fit your passions, time, and purpose. In the season of giving, let’s find ways to connect us in meaningful avenues, love, and spirit

  • I have been in hiding. Hiding from myself, never truly looking in the mirror, and using eyewear and glasses to hide from the world.

    In today's episode, listen to how I spent almost 30 years of my life feeling so unattractive, less than worthy, and utterly debilitated by my own self-consciousness - constantly telling myself I wasn't beautiful and only seeing my flaws. I let this negative self image become so paralyzing that there were days in school that I would simply skip class because I didn't have the confidence to leave the house.

    Alone. Locked inside, both physically and within the constraints of my own mind.

    Have you ever been this self-conscious? Letting it keep you from accomplishing goals or taking risks?

    Listen to find out how and when I finally started to feel confident, and how YOU can take these same tools to not only determine your own self-worth, but to start accomplishing your dreams. I can't wait to share my heart through this episode with you today.

  • Have you ever set a goal, and then failed to reach it? Rather than looking internally for where you fell short, have you then started to place the blame on others, telling yourself it isn't your fault that "x,y, or z" didn't come to fruition? Okay, we would all be lying if we denied the above. We have all had an instance where it was much easier to blame others for our own failures. In today's episode, Deidrafound herself blaming others for her own failures. Although it felt easier at the time to blame, it didn't help Deidra grow, course correct, or LEARN from the opportunity. Find out what she failed at, as well as how she's learning to accept responsibility for her own situations and create opportunities for growth in her life. How can you take the feedback from your situation and use it as a tool to learn, grow, and understand others?

  • Even though Deidra has overcome her battle with insomnia, she still has occasions where she just simply doesn't sleep. Have you ever been there? Rather than sulk and wallow in self-pity (which she has been there multiple times), Deidra decided to switch gears and start her day with gratitude. After refocusing, she was able to rearrange her day in order to put in the big rocks that really matter, and let the little things go. Listen in for some amazing tools and resources that have helped Deidra get in to an attitude of gratitude for realizing that every day is a new day.
